[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 465744, member: 15636"] Don’t use silicone, as the curing agents attack tin. JB Weld doesn’t flex, but West Systems G-Flex 650 does, $22 or so for 8-ounce kit. I’d prime tin BEFORE adding any goop or epoxy. I’d probably use LifeCaulk by BoatLife (preferred over 3M 5200) and even instead of GF 650, as my goop of choice for that rebuild and exterior piece, of which I’d still probably mechanically fasten at the corners.
